The original lights were quite dim and it was hard to tell when the brakes were applied.  This was a particularly problem on bright days.  I’d like to keep the car as original looking as possible, so a third brake light is not an option.  The new lights are far brighter and its much clearer when the brakes are applied.  Hopefully it will give other motorist enough warning when i’m slowing down.

The lens housings were cleaned up and repainted.  They were looking quite sorry for themselves.

Thank you to Patrick for installing these and doing all that work to restore the lenses 🙂
